BP and Harang are the only ones not to draw a walk today......I'm beginning to think it might not ever happen. I can live with if he keeps hitting .350, but that's obviously not going to happen. He needs to learn how to take a walk to maximize his potential IMO.
We'll see when the other teams stop throwing him meatballs, if he swings at garnage then we have a problem
Go Gators!
Kearns had only 1 in his first 50 ABs
OK, never mind. Swing away kid, swing away. He's got to be player of the week this week I'd think.Originally Posted by cyoung
He's now at 17 RBI for the week.

Does he need to right now?
Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12

"He's now at 17 RBI for the week."
Actually he's at four...today is Sunday
Here's to another record-breaking season from Adam Dunn...another 40 homeruns (all coming with nothing on the line) and 200 Ks! We Want King Jay!!
If he keeps hitting, I odn't care.
with guys always on and with Larue/Ross/pitcher behind him I would rather have a decision with his bat as long he isn't swinging at pitches he can't hit. And he really hasn't been chasing high fastball or breaking balls in the dirt.
Sucks cause he's not listed in yahoo fantasy baseball.
yes he is, click on RBI and he'll jump right out in your face
Is this thread serious? We should ride this hot streak out and enjoy it from him. Why worry????
Why on earth would he try to take a walk right now? He's as hot right now as anyone on the planet.

You take what they give you.
Plate discipline is somewhat of a "knock" on Phillips. But he's young.

If he keeps this pace up he'll get plenty of walks . . .intentional
Thank goodness for baseball.
Dunn walks too much, Philips not enough. Another day without the lithium here at Redszone.
